Indigo farmers

Indigo farmers are agricultural workers or companies that cultivate Indigo plants, primarily for extracting natural dye used in textiles and printing. These farmers grow indigo crops, often in regions where the plant thrives, employing traditional or modern farming methods. The indigo dye is valued for its vibrant blue color and eco-friendly properties, making it an important crop for sustainable fashion industries. Indico farming can involve sustainable practices, and in some contexts, these farmers also participate in fair trade programs, promoting ethical labor and environmental standards in their cultivation processes.
